Disclaimer: As hard as I try I still don't own Higher Ground *pouting*, but I keep trying.

A/N: This is my promised Daisy and David fic. It will mainly involve Daisy but I'll try and incorporate all the Cliffhangers. This takes place after Kat has graduated. Please tell me what you think. Also my computer has been acting up lately so if the font is weird I apologize in advance. Okay I'm done, enjoy!

Part One

Life sometimes just really really sucks, Daisy thought to herself. She was on her way back to Horizon 2 days earlier than she was supposed to be. She had had a visit with Daddy dearest. She couldn't believe that she had been so naïve, so trusting, she thought that he maybe just maybe could change. Boy was she wrong. Instead of healing old wounds it had only reopened them. It just proved to her that you just couldn't trust men.

The car pulled up the long driveway in front of the lodge and Daisy flounced out.

Peter who was outside did a double take as he witnessed the scene.

"Hey Dais. What brings you back so early?" he asked in a pleasant tone, wary of what might come out the teen's mouth.

"Well lets just say that the family visit didn't go off as planned. Rehab is a total crock. Enough said, okay." Daisy stated in a firm and harsh tone.

"Daisy—" Peter started.

"Leave it, Peter. Can I just get checked back in?"

"Sure." He nodded as they walked into the lodge.

An hour later Daisy headed to the girls dorm to unpack and get some rest. She had only begun to unpack when a perky voice interrupted her quiet contemplation.

"Daisy!! You're back early." Juliette announced in a singsong tone.

"And I don't want to talk about it." She responded in the same tone mocking Jules. And then turned her back on the brunette.

"Fine." Jules answered in a small voice and left the room.

"Damn," Daisy muttered. She was back an hour and already hurting people.

She lay down on the bed and reflected on what had recently happened. The night of the Morp had been magical for everyone. She had had so much fun dancing and flirting with David. Watching Shelby light up at Scott's return and the romantic proposal of Sophie and Peter. She had actually been lulled into the false illusion that she could be happy. So when her Dad had called asking for her to come home and visit, even though she had been hesitant she had let Peter and Sophie talk her into giving him a chance. And then it all went to hell.
